BlackOptic

Not sure if this is a specific comment on the OEM Yokahama Advan Sport V105 tires that come with the Black Optic Package "20" Audi Sport® 5-V-spoke design Titanium matte wheels with 255/30 summer tires"... Or the wheels themselves...

But doesn't it look really easy to scrape up these wheels?

I know there isn't much sidewall protection on a 20" rim, but are these wheels getting banged up real easy?

(I am pretty careful, no, make that very careful... but it looks like even when you are reversing slowly saying "where's the curb", the wheel rim is going to hit first.)

EDIT: Also, I guess I am hearing a lot of people favor the ride on the 19" rims, hey, even the 18" rims - smoother ride et al. Are people in general keeping these 20" rims? Or downsizing?

Check out rimpro-tec. A red line around the rim would compliment those calipers.

My POV is that anytime you rub a curb and escape wheel damage you have gotten lucky.

I have 20's with the Yokohama's mentioned. No curbs brushed, so far no damage.

Use the side mirror tilt down feature when reversing, very helpful.
